Key features
Milled from a solid block of steel to withstand repeated, heavy hammer blows.
Combines multiple polished, hemispherical depressions for doming with flat sides for general forming.
Profiled side cut-outs provide a secure grip and prevent shifting on the bench during use.
Suitable for forming non-ferrous metals including silver, copper, and brass sheet.
Who it's for
A core tool for professional silversmiths and bench jewellers across the UK. Also ideal for jewellery making students and apprentices who require a single, versatile block for a wide range of forming tasks.

For most bench work, 4–8 oz is the sweet spot. Lighter hammers (2–4 oz) suit fine detail and chasing punches; 6–8 oz suits forging and texture work. Avoid anything over 12 oz unless you specifically need a raising hammer.
Can I use this on annealed silver and copper?
Yes — these hammers are designed for non-ferrous metals: silver (sterling, fine, britannia), copper, brass, bronze, and aluminium. The polished face will not transfer marks to clean annealed stock when used correctly. For mild steel work, use a separate hammer.
How should I care for it?
Wipe the face down after each session to prevent any tarnish from work residue marking your next piece. If the head develops nicks, polish them out with fine-grit emery and a buffing mop — a marked hammer face transfers marks to your work.
What is in the box?
One hammer with the head and handle fitted, ready for the bench. Polished faces are protected with a thin oil film — wipe before first use.
